Confessions of a 29 Titan
1. I spent the first month of this game beating every strike, mission and raid the way it was meant to be played.
2. In the last week or so, I have played with "cheap" tactics such as hiding under platforms to beat certain priests and so on.
3. I love to take friends farming, I seem to have a sharp eye and knack for chests and materials so they always ask.
4. Sometimes I have 100+ of the material my friends want to farm for... and I go along anyways, even if I need 3 more of a different material to complete an upgrade.
5. I give my own voice-over and act out the loading screen dialogues.
6. I have pushed an AFK'er or two off the nearest ledge with my Sparrow.
7. I have never AFK'd a match, strike, or mission.
8. I jump off of the tower. Alot. I don't know why I do this.
9. My first Exotic dropped during my first Nightfall clear after 2 weeks of failure. I celebrated!
10. I bought my second Exotic with Strange Coins I earned by spending hours on chests, strikes, publics, etc.
11. I spent a week and a half farming for Vanguard marks, not realizing I had reached the cap of 200 already. I've looked but... the Lost Items service doesn't recognize my pain :(
12. Sometimes I stand far away in the Mothyards with a sniper rifle, and count "eenie, meenie, minie, moe" to select a random target for death. Then I hop on my Sparrow and go about my business.
13. I get so excited when I see a Public Event pop up.
14. My first time in Vault of Glass, I freely admitted that I didn't know what I was doing. I was then able to learn a role.
15. I have learned the importance of explaining the encounters in VoG if there's anyone I don't know in the group, because some people are too embarrassed to admit their first time.
16. I get upset if my usual Pike gets taken after Dinklebot askes if we think they'd mind. It's the second from the right. Please steer clear of it.
17. If someone is being a kill hog and buries themselves at a cave, door or "enemies are moving against each other" entrance, I drop a bubble on it.
18. Sometimes I will randomly follow another player around and kill whatever they are shooting at to help.
19. I have a deep loathing for Minotaurs, especially in the Nexus.
20. My hate for Psion majors with shields has almost reached #19.
21. Whoever decided to give Knights and Hobgoblins shield abilities.... I hope you get the flu.
22. I refuse to wear a Titan Mark that isn't long and flowing and fancy. No matter how much rep it gives me.
23. When I'm in a Fireteam in orbit getting ready for a raid, I look at all the spaceships rolling deep and play gangsta rap music in my head.
24. I kill all Captains on principle. Even if I have to go out of my way to do it. I dislike how cocky they are.
25. I like to push members of my Fireteam away from the NPC they're talking to in the Tower while they are in their menus.
26. I will kick your ball off the edge of the tower.
27. I look at the gouges in the moon and wonder what happened.
28. I don't think everything is as it seems.
29. I was a massive loot cave whore.
30. My laundry piles up more than it used to.
31. My Titan is female. Sometimes it does disturbing things to the male Titans in the Tower.
32. I have never thrown a dance party in my Bubble :(
33. Sometimes during encounters I fall off the map and blame someone else for pushing me off.
34. I don't understand why our space ships fly backwards before diving forward in orbit.
35. I still scream like Chris Tucker in the Fifth Element when Stealth Vandals swarm me.
Feel free to add your own!
EDIT: For those of you looking to party up and have a blast playing Destiny, I'm on Xbox One. My GT is Veilsix, feel free to message or party invite or add or follow :)
EDIT 2: I'm getting so many messages and friend requests, I think I'm keeping up ok but sometimes I miss a message... feel free to just join my fireteams or parties or better yet, just invite me!!!

11 RepliesEdited by Paul the Thrall: 10/18/2014 4:26:19 PMAs a fellow level 29 Titan, I too have confessions I'd like to share with you brother. 1) I always say hello to strike bosses when they first emerge. I just stand right in front of them and wave. 2) I lure enemies into my shield (toughness buff) so I can beat them to death without anyone stealing the kill. 3) I dance at the least appropriate times, often jumping into danger before doing so. 4) I have experienced a glitch in the Vault of Glass that took away my weapons, leaving me to beat a succession of harpies to death with nothing but my fists. I also stopped to point at the Templar and yell into my mic "You're next!". 5) I use my titan as a weapons dealer for my other characters, because their faction rep isn't high enough to buy their own legendary stuff. 6) The first faction I joined was Dead Orbit, for no other reason that the fact their representative is voiced by Peter Stormare. 7) I believe the Vex Mythoclast should be OP ... and I don't even have it. 8) I foolishly dismantled my first piece of raid armour because I didn't want to replace The Armamentarium ... I now have 3 Kabr's Wrath chest pieces, so I fretted over nothing. 9) I've been into the Terminus, but I wasn't the one to get us there. 10) I have punched every strike boss and lived. 11) I hate Crucible, but have a burning need to take part in events. I reached rank 3 in Iron Banner and the experience almost drove me to stop playing Destiny. 12) My raid team always follows my lead, but I'm not sure why. The first team I completed it with even decided to make a new clan, with me in charge no less. 13) Given the choice, I prefer to beat something to death rather than shoot it. 14) I got The Last Word as a random drop in the week the game was released. So many people kept telling me it was the gun they wanted that I put it in my vault to stop people commenting on it and haven't used it since. 15) I mock hunters and despise warlocks. 16) When I play control, I deploy my shield in enemy zones and dance while capturing it, in plain sight of enemies. I then proceed to beat down anyone who comes inside, even blade dancers. 17) The above does not apply to titans running into my shield and doing their smash, or to warlocks novabombing me. Both negate my shield and toughness buff. 18) I also curse quite profusely when a hunter I was taunting to come inside turns out to be a gunslinger with his super ready. 19) I suffered buyer's remorse when I chose to buy Red Death instead of the Helm of Saint-14. I suffered it again a few days later when Red Death dropped for me when completing my weekly raid run. 20) My best Crucible K/D ratio is 19. Rather than being proud of my effort, I was concerned about the skill of the other team. I NEVER do that well in PvP. 21) I have completed over a dozen exotic bounties with my titan, while my other characters are yet to receive their first. 22) My fondest experience in Destiny was coming across three level 26 guardians attempting to open the Vault of Glass. I spent a few minutes racing back and forth between sync plates killing Praetorians as fast as possible before moving to the next, or holding a plate until a fallen player could return to it. Once the spire activated, I raced to the door and waited for it to open as they danced. I then pointed down the tunnel, waved to the players and then turned and slowly walked away into the sunset. 23) I deleted my warlock to make another titan, who is also level 29.
